I've slept too long!

Back off Warchild, seriously.

See you in the next life!

Not only was he standing with an Islamic leader, they're also married. They met at a call to prayer and became prisoners of love. You heard it here first.

My 70 year old dad ogled Nicole Kidman when they shared an elevator. I wasn't there, but my brother was, and he assures me it was the most embarrassing 30 seconds of his life.

David Bowie
In the foyer of a London theatre during the intermission. He was standing with a bunch of friends, including his wife Imam. I was about 15 and was pretending to ignore him as I walked past (despite my stalker's glare). In the process I managed to step on one of his friends toes. She gasped in pain and told…

Define backlash…did Juno really suffer one? (Not a firstie attempt BTW)
Maybe some people just didn't like it to begin with.

Would that make Doctor Who Cliff Richard?

More will come. When they were first announced on the schedules, who honestly knew the Wire, Sopranos, Buffy et al would turn out so good? Aren't the Band of Brothers makers (Spielberg, Hanks) doing something for the Pacific conflict soon?…. That's got to be worth looking forward to.

Heroes needs to be taken to one of those Swiss clinics, for which you only need a one way ticket. It really would be the kindest thing for everyone. That said, having committed so many hours of my sad life to it, I will rather lamely be tuning in once again. Pathetic, I know.

The striker also turned up in Eastenders.

I'll second that, motherfuckers.

Talking to girls eh… Interesting, veeery interesting. Tell me, how does one talk to a girl?

Dahl is in my opinion the greatest ever children's writer (at least in the 20th century). No generic teenage wizard, spy, vampire or quest stories for him. He wrote a book about a confectionary company's global promotion campaign… the prize being a factory tour…and turned it into a truly brilliant story. Okay, it was…

I should add that I feel guilty discussing my favourite cartoon after such a crude reference to anal sex. Ah well…

Bo Jenkins is great, but it's Keen Hacksaw all the time for me (Hey, not bad for a fatso). I didn't appreciate it when I was young, but they nailed his cheesy sportscaster persona perfectly. A genius and much under appreciated cartoon, which I think foreshadows a lot of the humour and style of programs like the…

A tip of the hat to my favourite childhood movie.

Sexual Yule log
A friend of mine once told me about a time he danced the bum fandango with a girl. When he extricated himself, he said that what emerged look like a Yule Log. That image will be seared in my mind forever. I now give it to you. I assume this isn't what Dylan will be singing about.

Internet porn
While I do appreciate it a lot now, it would have been a Godsend when I was 13. Kids today don't know how lucky they are.

Beauty and the Beast is pretty much perfect.
